Raising a Good Team - Guide for Pokemon Crystal

Remember in a well-rounded team you should cover a pokemon's weakness with another
pokemon in your party. Dual type Pokemon(such as Poison/Ghost Ghastly) are
nice 'cause you add more types your team is good against, but it also adds
weaknesses to your team as well. Try not to include more than 2 dual type pokemon
in your roster unless they have very few weaknesses like Kingdra who is only bad
against Dragon types. The team shown below covers all weaknesses and has plenty of
types it can take out.

While this team doesn't look like much, it can crush anything in its path if used
the right way and given the proper items to hold, such as a magnet for Typhlosion or
a Miracleberry for Clefable. If you want to see my true team or have any questions,
e-mail me at [email protected] Who knows, I may even learn something from
you. Hope you liked this and become better Pokemon trainers!
